The industry is silent on when other channels will be going digital. Someone who just subscribes to the basic programming tier without previously needing a cable box might suddenly find only local broadcast stations available. Here is a site that explains some of this; http://www.ezdigitaltv.com/Cable_Television.html So to say you’re not affected by the transition should be rephrased to you’re not affected yet and we can’t tell you when you will be! Check with your cable provider LOL The cable industry has to carry only the local commercial broadcast transmissions until Feb 2012.
